Eulogies
by redundantcartworker ini recently attended a non jw funeral at a local church.
during the service, a couple of friends/relatives of the deceased eloquently spoke for a few minutes about the deceased with some of their fond memories and gave heartfelt, respectful tributes.. would i ( a non jw) be given a few minutes to speak at either of my jw parents funerals at the kingdom hall ?.
i guess i already know the answer, but if the answer is "no", then why not and how would they hide the heartlessness of refusing ?

What Do You Do if the Household Does Not Celebrate?
by BluesBrother init is christmas morning ....the weather outside looks cold grey and dismal (typical britain in winter ) the house is quiet as my wife gets on with something.
.... the street is silent, as dead as the grave.
the tv is full of the purile nonsense that fills airtime this time of year .

Bluesbrother i am sure you are not the only person who struggles with the silence of today. It's hard, I know, the silence is deafening.
If I maybe so bold, I wish you a merry Christmas and a peaceful day.

Can't believe we are still here
by moreconfusedthanever injust this week i had the jws knock on my door.
sisters from my old congregation.
we exchanged the usual polite conversation.

Miss Worldly
During our chat one of the sisters pipes up and says "I can't believe we are still here. We were not meant to go to high school, get married or have children this side of Armageddon.". This sister is now a grandmother.
......... Do I hear the chink of a doubt?
"I can't believe we are still here.
Believe it! .... How can she not believe that, but she believes things so much more far fetched!?!?

Professions in the Paradise
by The Real Edward Gentry inwe know there will be no money in paradise.
but there will almost certainly be jobs to do.
we will be perfect at our jobs but that doesn't mean we will be perfect at every job.

Haha! I've had a conversation about a similar thing today. Apparently the resurrected will be coming back as Angel types (?!) and jehovah is such a loving god they'll just be happy to be there ....... anyway, I digress.... A tale for another vent sometime...
If you build your own house, you can live in it.... So, sorry Moses, you can't help do my roof, I don't want to live with you....

Hellaby UK circuit A$$emb£y this Sunday
by punkofnice inmy spies tell me that the attendance for hellaby this last sunday was only 600.. that's all i know.
i imagine some on here have perhaps some more insights into why.
however, it seems rather low, don't you think?.

I believe there was an assembly there the Sunday before too? ... So it could have been split?

Fake publisher card
by floridaborn inso i've been a lurked on this site for about 15 years, thank goodness for dial up internet.... anyway my fade has been working off and on for that long but my whole family is still in including my kid.
at this point i have started dating a worldly person.
he is wiling to put onthe facade of being a witness so i don't have to lose my family.

Miss Worldly
Really floridaborn? You really think you partner could pass himself off as JW? Really?
I'm sorry, but I think you need to find another way. You will get rumbled, then what? I honestly think it better to continue your fade and find some other way out.
I'm only saying this as a 'worldly' person. Save yourself extra grief, find another way, it won't work.
Much love & best wishes, Miss W
